Smirnova, E.S. The problems of demographic and ethnic – cultural security in the conditions of high migration level.

Abstract: Currently due to globalization the problems of migration came to a new level. For example, while in the past the European states could be proud of their liberalism and democracy and were eager to share them with everyone interested, currently they face a dilemma: how to sustain the tradition of hospitality towards migrants, searching for the better life, and not to endanger its own economical, political, and national stability? This article is devoted to the topical problems in the sphere of migration in the Russian Federation and in European states.
